On in inhale breath, lift through the chest and on an exhale, draw the shoulders down the back in order to create more length in the back of the neck. Allow the elbows to press into the inner thighs and the inner thighs to resist into the elbows in order to create more length in the spine, and to sit more erect. Begin to close the eyes and follow the breath as it moves up and down the spine. Give the breath a color and envision it nourishing the entire body. Create long and smooth inhales and exhales. Stay here for up to 30 seconds to start, and stay for up to 5 full rounds of breath, inhales and exhales.
To come out: Gently bring the palms to the floor in front of the body and begin to straighten the legs. Bring the palms to the hips and on in inhale breath, with a flat-back, rise up to standing. Exhale at the top, and take a moment to notice how you feel.
Namaste,
